The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

Ugh.

The shock of catching a vicious Pegasus galloping in the middle of the night should be no less shocking than almost catching the "Dismemberer", right?

This is the destiny stone...

"Night devil?"

"Ok?"

Until Chris below, with a tenor-like voice, guessed the identity of the brother in the wall.After Riber was stunned for a moment, he realized that the situation wasn't that bad?

Of course "Night Demon" Riber knew.

It doesn't mean the Night Stalker who has no passive during the day so he can only clear wilds, but has a passive that can efficiently clear wilds at night, but the serial murderer who has been raging in Greenwater recently.

What Riber couldn't remember were some awkward and long Western-style names.

However, how did Chris judge that this middle-aged man, who was completely victimized, belonged to the Night Demon?

"Sure enough, collecting the hair strands of the victim is the hallmark of the night devil as a serial killer!"

As if explaining to Riber, Chris said to himself, and then pulled out a series of hooks made of hair bundles of various colors from the middle-aged man in the wall, almost braided into a "Daredevil's Spoils" necklace.

That is to say, the person Annie ran over in the form of a flying dump truck really happened to be the famous serial killer Daredevil?

"Annie, will you still catch the murderer?"

Riber asked the Pegasus he was riding with a strange expression.

And Annie, naturally shook her head, and then pointed slightly towards the corner of the alley.

Due to the strong light on Chris, at least in Riber's eyes, the scene in the alley is clear at a glance.

Then, he saw that besides the "Night Demon" whose image was not very peaceful, there was also a girl lying on the edge.

Because of the angle, it was difficult to see where the girl was before Riber in the air.However, from the perspective of Chris on the ground, he should be able to see the girl who should have been injured and fell to the ground.

However, Chris ran to the middle-aged man by the wall immediately.

Although, the picture of a person being embedded in the wall is too strong, so it is reasonable to be attracted to it.Also, it's normal for detectives to be more interested in the presence of a suspected inmate.

But Chris seemed to completely ignore the girl's appearance, which made Riber somewhat concerned.

"You did it for her? Oh... It should be that Night Demon was planning to kill her, and then you heard her cry for help?"

Recalling that Annie's ears trembled for a while before she ran wildly, Riber asked speculatively.

But this time, he got a positive answer from Anne.

Tsk... Is this horse ear so easy to use?

Judging from the current situation, even if the girl cried out for help at that time, it should have been very subtle.And such a voice, Annie can actually capture it.

Thinking of various legends, Pegasus will always be accompanied by pure girls.Thinking about it, there should be a special relationship between them or something.

...

No, those who like pure girls seem to be unicorns...

Uh.

In short, almost the same meaning.

Thinking of these insignificant things, Riber's heart, which was once completely messed up, gradually calmed down.

In any case, it is a good thing to prevent a tragedy.

And, since the only victim present was the notorious "Night Stalker."Come to think of it, he has no human rights.

Therefore, Riber felt that he should and would not be held accountable for driving the Night Demon into a state of confusion.

But... the night devil, the serial killer who made the knights at a loss and made the people of Greenwater panic, is it so flat?

Riber always felt that there was a lack of reality.

Speaking of which, when I read those criminal investigation works in my previous life, Riber felt that no matter how fierce and powerful the prisoner was described in the work, when the prisoner really obeyed the law, he was often just pressed to the ground by a few police officers, wearing a Just a pair of handcuffs.

No matter how thrilling the process is, the flatness at the end always has a sense of anticlimax.

But after actually experiencing it once, Riber discovered that the reason why those works are like that is because reality is like this.

A murderer does not become a murderer because of his own strength.Becoming a murderer also cannot make the murderer strengthen himself.

They are always just some weak people who can only attack those who are weaker than themselves through some despicable methods.

Therefore, when they are desperate, they cannot suddenly transform into Superman.In the grand scene, vigorously resisted and then died heroically.

They don't have that belief and ability.

Not worthy.

...

While thinking, Riber wondered if he was about to fall to the ground and check if the girl lying on the ground was okay.

The girl slowly sat up by herself.

The girl has long, messy wheat-colored hair, and wears shabby clothes full of large and small patches.

After adjusting her sitting position to a kneeling position, the girl looked up at Riber and Annie in the sky, intertwined her hands and made a gesture of a devout believer, then slowly lowered her head, opening her lips up and down, as if saying something .

Although Riber couldn't hear clearly, he could roughly guess that it should be words of thanks.

In addition, since he saw bloodstains flowing from the side of the girl's face, he felt that the other party should prioritize treating the wound rather than praying and thanking her.

Up to now, this alley in the slum area has been noisy for a while.

Ever since, even in the middle of the night, the surrounding lights were more or less turned on, and some people surrounded him when they heard the sound.

It's just that, among the crowd who surrounded him, Riber keenly saw that one of them had a different style of painting.

Unlike most of the people in ragged clothes, there was a small and thin person who was well dressed and carried a black square box the size of a fish tank on his chest.

Just when Riber always felt that this person seemed to have seen him before, this young thin man raised the black box and pressed it violently at Riber...

Click click.

Um...

In fact, Riber did not hear such a voice.

But Riber knew that the black box was the camera of the world.Then, the reason why this guy looks familiar is because he is a member of the Knights and has also appeared on the scene of "Dismemberer".

Most importantly, the other party was shooting him!

"you!"

"Don't worry, Earl! I will definitely choose the best one for you!"

After meeting their eyes, the member of the Knights shouted excitedly, and then disappeared into the night with his camera.

Volume II: Chapter 61, The Heroes of Greenwalt

The next day, or at noon of the day.

Riber, enjoying an after-lunch coffee in his unnamed restaurant.

The reason why he was on the first floor, not the restaurant on the second floor of the mansion.It's because the upstairs is currently moving systematically, so he doesn't want to disturb the Ed's family.

Speaking of which, since Riber came to this unnamed restaurant, he has met a total of three guests in the past few days.

Um...

Is this restaurant really okay?

If he bought this store as a family investment, it would be considered a loss now, right?

In the case of prodigal, his performance is really as stable as ever.

However, no one patronized the unnamed restaurant, and Riber was happy to relax.Anyway, his family has so much money that they can't spend it all.

It has been 20 days since he came to this world, and Riber still hasn't touched the currency of Xinmei Kingdom.

He now understands why those young ladies and young masters from rich families have no concept of money at all.

It's really because they really don't know how to touch those things, and there is no need to touch them.

While Riber was drinking coffee, Sebastian, who once walked out of the restaurant, came in with a stack of newspapers.

After taking the newspaper and opening it, Riber almost sprayed coffee on it.

"Cough...cough..."

Choking, Riber coughed, put down the cup in his hand, and covered his face with his hands.

When he heard that the delivery of the Greenwater Pioneer Daily was postponed on this day and would be changed to a special issue, Riber had already vaguely expected that his photo would be published on it again.

He just didn't expect that the title of the article accompanying the photo would be so excessive.

"Greenwater's hero."

Below the main title, which took up less than half of the page, there was a line of small characters, which read the news of the night demon's arrest.

The photo is of high quality as always, and it was taken after the rescued girl woke up.

The girl with messy hair knelt on the ground devoutly and looked up at the sky.In the sky above, the indifferent Riber and the Pegasus with its wings outstretched showed an incomparably sacred feeling.

Because the photo is black and white, the Pegasus that was emitting fluorescent light at that time looked extraordinarily beautiful and sacred.

Riber also saw the corner of the photo, the night monster that was smashed into the wall.

By the way, after the arrival of the knights earlier, it was confirmed that the night devil was alive.Therefore, Ribel also breathed a sigh of relief, and no longer worried about whether he sent a scumbag to the unlucky different world.

Beside the miserable night devil is Chris.

Chris, who only occupied a small corner in the photo, was pulling down the brim of his detective hat, lowering his head to hide his face behind the shadows, with a completely frustrated and unwilling expression.

Since Riber had more things to care about at the time, without this photo, he really didn't know that Chris had shown such an expression.

In short, what appeared on the Pioneer Daily is such a perfect work of art with an impeccable overall composition and full of details and easter eggs.

As for the supporting articles, they are as nasty as ever.

The author seems to have experienced it personally. First, he vividly described how the earl was hijacked by the "dismemberer" the day before yesterday. He fought with the dismemberer wisely and calmly, and finally escaped with his own strength. He was almost caught and dismembered on the spot. By.

It has to be said that this part of the content is completely rumored.

After spreading the rumors, the author described in an exaggerated way the Earl's process of letting Night Demon subdue the law.

Among them, the author also specifically pointed out that the Earl had only visited Greenwater City three days ago.Moreover, it only took half a day to capture the night demon that made the Knights helpless.

Then, he began to denounce the Knights, saying all kinds of inactions, incompetence, etc. of the Knights.

It also said that there was a gossip that the Knights recently hired a young man who claimed to be a detective as a consultant for the Knights Guard.

This behavior, it is unbelievable, is an act of throwing the tax burden of the people into the water.

Finally, there is a point of sublimation.

Said that although the Earl of Campret is the master of Campret Territory and has only been in Greenwater City for a short time, there is nothing wrong with calling him a "hero" based on his contribution to the city place.And, loudly appeal to the Knights to contact the royal family and award the Earl the Medal of Honor as soon as possible.

Riber, who finally finished reading the entire report, slammed the newspaper on the table heavily, just wanting to scream to the sky.

He can already imagine that as long as his face walks out of the restaurant gate, everyone in Greenwater City will already know everyone.

Is journalism in this world too unprofessional?

How can it be so subjective, incorporate a lot of personal emotions, mix a lot of unconfirmed information, and also have extremely inflammatory reports waiting in the newspaper?

Moreover, since his photos are frequently used, is there no such thing as portrait rights in the laws of this kingdom?

Or let Sebastian put pressure on the newspaper?

No...it won't work.

Even if there is no Vanguard newspaper, there is also a forward newspaper and a center newspaper.

Moreover, if Sebastian issued a lawyer's letter to suppress the newspaper and spread it, it would cause even greater controversy and keep the hot spots lingering.

What he wants is not to hype himself, but to let things cool down quickly.

That...

It seems that he can only stay in the mansion honestly without showing his face, and stop causing any attention-grabbing things.

"Ugh..."
